Forecast in detail
Today (Sunday): Mostly sunny skies turn partly cloudy during the afternoon, with low humidity. Morning temperatures climb through the 50s into the 60s, and afternoon highs reach about 70 to 75. Less windy than yesterday but still some gusts from the west around 20 to 25 mph. Confidence: High 😎 Nice Day!
Tonight: Dry conditions carry on as partly cloudy evening skies turn mostly clear overnight. It should be a nice night to open the windows as lows dip to the upper 40s and low 50s, but perhaps a bit too cool for some. Confidence: High
Tomorrow (Monday): Another cool, almost refreshing start before morning temperatures rise through the 50s and 60s, building to afternoon highs in the mid- to upper 70s. Skies are mostly sunny, with light winds. Confidence: Medium-High 😎 Nice Day!
Tomorrow night: Mostly clear skies continue through the night, with lows in the mid- to upper 50s. Confidence: Medium-High
A look ahead
High pressure keeps mostly sunny skies going Tuesday and Wednesday, and as it drifts offshore, it will send southerly winds and warmer air our way. Tuesday highs should reach the mid-80s, heating into the upper 80s to perhaps low 90s by Wednesday. Nice pool weather, if only it were the weekend! Confidence: Medium-High
Highs should be in the upper 80s to perhaps low 90s again Thursday and mid-80s to near 90 Friday. Could see some increasing clouds Thursday, and Friday may bring our next chance of showers and thunderstorms. Confidence: Medium

In words and photos, rural Alaska residents reflect on their village's sustainable practices
GALENA, Alaska (AP) — In rural central Alaska, a village is in the midst of a clean energy transformation that locals say will boost savings, build resilience and provide jobs. Galena wants to curb its reliance on expensive, imported diesel that when burned is one of the largest contributors of planet-warming emissions. Nearly 10 years ago, the village started harvesting trees to fuel a biomass plant to heat its bustling boarding school, offsetting about 100,000 gallons (about 380,000 liters) of diesel annually. The local Louden Tribe is encouraging people to collect floating logs from the Yukon River that can be used for firewood and siding for the sustainable homes they're building for members. And soon a 1.5-megawatt solar farm will allow the city to turn off its diesel engines and run on 100% clean, renewable energy on sunny summer days, with excess power stored in a battery for later use. That will save another 100,000 gallons annually. The Associated Press talked to residents about their village's sustainable and renewable energy projects. Here are some of their reflections: Tim Kalke, 46, general manager at Sustainable Energy for Galena Alaska 'We're just ensuring that our critical infrastructure has redundancy and protection built into it, so that every time there's a power outage, it doesn't turn into tens of thousands of dollars in repairs in its wake.' Jade Thurmond, 20, a Galena resident working on the solar farm 'I'm really excited for when we are using it and how we'll reduce our diesel usage. I think that would be pretty fun to see and to hear about in the future, and see what comes along.' Jake Pogrebinsky, 54, a sawmill operator for Louden Tribe and driftwood collector 'Instead of having to make money to pay for barge freight or to buy materials, you are spending your time out on the river. For a young person, as a lesson, as a skill-building activity, it cannot possibly be compared to.' Brad Scotton, 54, a Galena city council member 'What (the biomass plant) has done is stabilize (costs), and it's created a local workforce and a job base that we never used to have. So it's keeping the money that used to go outside within the community and providing pretty meaningful jobs for people.' Will Kramer, 29, an applied mechanics instructor at Galena Interior Learning Academy 'We are just at the whim of whatever somebody else that wants to make all the money off of us is saying and doing. And being able to install and integrate these systems in these communities, it kind of gives the freedom back to the communities.' Phil Koontz, 74 , a retired environmental engineer for the Louden Tribe 'It would be very hard to live here without outside resources. I see fuel as probably the main outside resource that we use. It provides most of the electricity, it provides most of the transportation, it provides most of the heat. I don't know what we're going to do without those things. One of the solutions I see is efficiency, reducing the need for energy to produce the same result, better insulated houses, better vehicles, better energy sources.' Aaren Sommer, 19, a Galena resident helping install the solar array The array is 'going to reduce the diesel usage a whole bunch over at the power plant, which is going to help us out.' ___ Pineda reported from Los Angeles. ___ The Associated Press receives support from the Walton Family Foundation for coverage of water and environmental policy.

Moving in with my mom and older sister showed me it's OK if my kids go to someone else for advice
Ever since I became a mom, I wanted to be their primary mentor. We recently moved in with my mom and older sister, and the kids have started asking them for advice. I'm learning that it doesn't have to be me they go to — it can be someone else who loves them. I'm not sure if it's mom guilt or my pride, but ever since I became a mother 14 years ago, I wanted to be my kids' go-to mentor. If one of my daughters was sad, I wanted to be the one who held her until she calmed down. If my child had a rough day at school, I wanted to be the person who bent down to meet her eyes and ask her about it. When one of my girls had a preteen tiff with friends, I wanted to be the one who offered guidance. I'm their mother. I wanted it to be me — if not all of the time, at least most of the time. Even though my kids have a wonderful father who is also there for them, as a mom of two daughters, I wanted to make sure that I was the woman who dried their tears, listened to their dilemmas, and offered sound advice. I wasn't wrong to feel this way; that's my job, and being there for those moments showed my daughters how much I love them. I wanted them to know they can always count on my presence and support. Recently, though, I've learned that I don't have to be the only woman on whom they rely for these things. Sometimes, another woman who loves them might even be a better choice. Three months ago, we moved in with my mom and older sister while we renovate our home. We're there every day — when my kids are in good moods and bad moods, when they don't want to do homework, when they're fighting with friends. I've done what I always do, offering my ear and my guidance. But I've learned that it's OK to allow others who love my kids to help out. My mother found my younger daughter lying on her bed, feeling sad, and she sat down beside her. She listened while she rubbed my daughter's back and then, she shared advice. Other times, when my younger daughter was moody and resistant to homework or bedtime, my sister stepped in and found a way to convince her, making her laugh with a joke or slipping in some fun. They're doing the job I thought had to be only mine, and they're doing it well. This is even more true when I think about my older daughter, who is now a teenager. Sometimes, she just doesn't want to talk to me simply because I'm her mother. She gets tired of hearing my input, but she will go to her aunt to discuss her troubles — she will even listen to her advice. Occasionally, she might also talk to her grandmother about something before she talks to me about it. And that's OK, because at least I know she's getting the guidance she needs. It's not easy to accept; I still want to be her top choice. Occasionally, I still am, and I hope when we get through all this teenage angst, she'll come to me even more often. But for now, I have to admit that these other women who love her are just the better option sometimes. I have to remind myself how blessed I am that I have plenty of women around us who I trust to comfort my kids, listen to their troubles, and give them advice. At the end of the day, my job is to do what's best for my children. If, now and then, that best thing is not me, so be it. None of this will change how much they love me. And no matter who they choose as a mentor, I know they'll always know how very much I love them. Read the original article on Business Insider
